blowfish SG Let say yr boss decided to promote you and pay increment, BUT he will throw more things to you to handle. But u currently is very tight and overloaded already. Will u accept it?
dragg SG of course accept. imagine ending up with more work but the promotion and increment going to your colleague.
ditzy SG Nonono, I won't accept it. How can you be paying me more to do more work? It just doesn't add up. I wasn't born yesterday you know.
gd4u SG This is called the backward bending of the individual Labour Supply Curve, where the substitution effect is stronger than the income effect, meaning, more $$ does not induce a high incentive to work... So u want ur boss to cut ur pay ??
SnowFlag SG Would you rather he throw more work at you with the same pay? Anyway, you may need to take some lesssons on time management.
viewquek SG Take lah, a good supervisor will know how to delicate the work downwards. If u observe ur subordinate properly, u will know who to give what type of duty. So promotion + increment = less work load.
